WAF real webserver over HTTPS and certificates

Ralph Sikau

Hi,

do I understand it right that with a real webserver and a virtual webserver both using HTTPS two certificates are used?
Like Nginx uses its own SSL-certificate and the domain has another one on Sophos UTM for the virtual webserver.
Is in that case DNAT a better way than WAF?

Maybe somebody can explain the concepts.

    Not exactly.  1) configure the real webserver with a certificate.   2) Export thE certificate chain with the private key and a password.  3) import the certificate into UTM and configure it on the virtual webserver.   Now UTM can impersonate the real server.
